Anniversary Tour
Being away for a few days means lots of photos to sort - remember that to see the photos bigger and as a slide show just click on any picture!! A 4 day (3 night) getaway started as we headed towards our first overnight in Gateshead. We had decided to explore the Durham coastline and headed to Seaham as it is part of the Heritage Coastline. From here we took a slow meander south but with very few chances to see the sea without steep pathways we headed North again and stopped off at Roker Harbour and then into South Shields as we turned towards our Holiday Inn. Thanks to AA discounts we enjoyed a carvery at the TOBY nearby. Next morning (Fri), we planned to see as much of the Northumberland coast as we dodged the showers which had been forecast. First stop was Blyth where we had a breath of fresh air (gale force fresh air!) and we felt spots of rain...
